My Pet Firefly: Let the Wonderment Begin + Reader #Giveaway!

My oldest daughter is absolutely in love with fairies and I’m amazed at how often she let’s me know that she will meet a fairy before she grows up! It’s not only fairies that she adores however, it’s really anything that flies. Butterflies (see our feature of Gemmy’s Butterfly Collection), firefly’s and everything in between, if it has wings, she will play or stare at it for hours. So you can imagine the the wonderment in her eyes when I recently introduced “My Pet Firefly” by Gemmy!

What is My Pet Firefly?
My Pet Firefly is the latest addition to Gemmy’s family of animated animals, including the Butterfly Collection. This cute and comically inspired firefly glows and flickers just like the real thing! Plus, it flits and flies around its jar with a realistic motion that you have to see to believe. My Pet Firefly makes a great night light for kids, or desk accent for adults. Whether young, old or in-netween, this firefly is sure to draw a smile wherever it goes!

Magical is the only word that I can think of to describe how amazing the My Pet Firefly is. In fact, these little gems were a part of the spread at the recent wedding of Miranda Lambert and Blake Shelton. It’s the realistic motion of these little fireflies that leave you wondering if there’s actually a real firefly flitting and fluttering around inside, and with a few simple taps of the top of the jar, you can direct your firefly and tell him exactly what you would like him to do!

My Pet Firefly is available in three different color options, including green, blue and every girls favorite: Pink! This cute firefly does come in a glass jar, so although it’s rated for all ages, I would recommend that parents keep a watchful eye when around little ones.

Buy It!
My Pet Firefly is available at Cracker Barrel stores now for just $14.95.

My Daughter loves being outside and camping. We just got land in Wa and I think camping up there was better then any disney land trip hands down for her. =O) She loves bug looking and fishing… Oh I like u on Fb

My children 40 & 45 still love to sit in my backyard and watch the fireflies during the summer. It would be such a joy to watch their eyes light up with amazement if I had a pet firefly to surprise them with one cold winter evening.

My son actually loves butterflies… he sees them in books or outside and excitedly yells “buh-fwy!” whenever he sees them with a huge grin on his face. It’s amazing to watch how in love he is with them!Amanda Lalonde´s last blog post ..4.4.11

My 2 year old son loves frogs and bugs and going fishing. He has been obsessed with grabbing frogs and trying to bring them all home to sleep in his bed because they are “his best friends.” My almost one year old daughter loves to pick up rocks and try to eat them!

I take my grandkids on walks in the woods frequently and we see all kinds of things that make them stop in wonderment–quail mothers and their babies, a deer with her fawn, swifts in their mud nests, Canadian geese with their goslings, even a skunk late getting to sleep. i hope I’ve managed to give them I hope that even in an urban environment, they are getting a sense of the miracles of nature.

My Cole stops in wonderment at all bugs. There will be something crawling across the sidewalk, maybe on the window, or in the car and he will stop and watch it. Sometimes he’ll catch it, sometimes he won’t.

My daughter is fascinated with our Moon. Every morning first thing she does is look up and find “Luna”. She always askes about the different stages of the moon. Once she asked if Luna was broken, and knows when she is a crescent moon!

Luckily my child is still at the age where he finds most anything new fascinating-he thought the fireworks were the best thing he had ever seen….I wish I had captured the wonder in his eyes,but we forgot the camera of course!
